Peace is more important than all justice; and peace was not made for the sake of justice, but justice for the sake of peace.
I think [...] [firearms] were invented by Satan himself, for they can`t be defended against with weapons and fists. All human strength vanishes when confronted with firearms. A man is dead before he sees what`s coming.
An earthly kingdom cannot exist without inequality of persons. Some must be free, some serfs, some rulers, some subjects.
Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.
